Report
A classic British jam made from blackcurrants (no pectin).
Share:
Ingredients
- 2 lbs blackcurrants frozen
- 20 oz water
- 2 lb sugar about 2 1/2 cups
- 3 Tbsp lemon juice freshly squeezed
Instructions
- Place the black currants and water in a heavy pot over medium low heat. Cook the fruit for about half an hour or longer, stirring occasionally, to soften the skins.
- Add the sugar and lemon juice.
- Increase the heat to simmer the jam briskly while constantly stirring. Use a candy thermometer to bring the temperature of the jam to 215°F (101.5°C) which should be reached in about 10 to 15 minutes.
- Pour into warm, dry jars which have been rinsed with boiling water, along with the lids.
- Process to seal, if desired, but you can just keep it in the fridge to be on the safe side. I make sure to hear/see my lids pop to ensure a seal.
